Costume question

Strange one, but...am I alone in preferring to see a girl in the full Superman-style bodysuit rather than the miniskirted Supergirl outfit?

It's just that the skirt seems more for a Supergirl, a younger woman who isn't quite so experienced at the superhero game, and a woman in the full Superman bodysuit would be a Superwoman...a slightly older, more confident woman who's much more experienced.

I just prefer the pants to the skirt, is all...

Hillary Clinton wears pants. Supergirl wears a skirt or short shorts. I want to see long, limber legs. Just my opinion.

I'm 100% into the miniskirt, with boots to make her legs look ever more amazing. Long blonde hair and those amazing legs are the highlights. Everything else is secondary.

That said, I do find tight, leather pants interesting at times.

As in these images...

But in the end, the miniskirt wins. Here's another commission I arranged a few years ago. The character is a Velorian (hence to 'S'), but otherwise isn't much different than SG.

A powerful tribute to using raw strength and flight ability as opposed to balance and leverage.

I too want to see the S-Girl's legs. Supergirl got to have a mini skirt or cheerleader like skirt in my mind.

supergirl with skirt ftw

It's all about that skirt. It's like the cape ~ flying, kicking, running, it just adds to the motion. Love that flow and swish. It just adds to the movement of it all. It doesn't get in the way like a long dress, but it is also so in your face unreserved (perhaps trashy) like powergirl running around in a bathing suit uncovered. Besides, have you ever touched the leg of a woman with a silky skirt on.

Pants FTW.
